Will be sad to see Nestor go but good get for Yankees

This should fix their issue of finishing games they’ve had

Could be a good win win trade here if both pitchers can bounce back.

Williams when on is obviously a top closer but there are injury risks and damn he blew up in the playoffs that year. Both him and Nestor gave up some crushing HR!

22: 1.93 ERA in 60 IP

There's really nothing for him to bounce back from...he's had a couple playoff meltdowns but with 2.1 career IP you can't chalk it up to anything other than sample size right now.

Can't say I'm a fan of trading a perfectly decent starting pitcher for a reliever. Durbin is a whatever throw-in.

He had a broken back last year. I just meant more i jury concern. He’s elite when he’s pitching and healthy.

Playoffs are all about small sample sizes. You either perform or you don’t. You don’t get the luxury of 163 games for not to even out.

Yankees are doing a great job this offseason. I like what theu are doing. They are better now without giving that soto deal. Spreading the money around and filling needs. I hate saying this by the way
